China white

[akhtar]

China white angel of the oceans
Heavenly petal of Babylon
Ripples across the vastness
China white angel sprinkles her colour
Amid the moonstone river basin

Archaic beauty sings her temptress pull
Hearken to the rousing Celtic rhymes
Host of magical sins
Sultry dame of arousal
Playing upon the carousel
Tantalizing in her way, this sniper of every man’s heart

Here in this abode, this cavern
The setting for a dreamer’s art
A portrait of you hangs above
Your bare body knelt in a pool of scented red
You have splashed a coat of splendour upon the dourness
